Hello Gorgeous!

Bows&Beau-ties was created from my constant inspiration by artists in the fashion industry, my obsessions over the latest fashion show or trend, and admiration of beau men's fashion- especially when they include bow-ties!

I spend more on clothes and would rather buy more shoes than accessories (even though I spend a ton of time dreaming of Tiffanys), but one accessory I have a pretty big collection of is headbands. I don't remember when I started wearing them and whether it was before or after watching Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl. I do know that this accessory- like sunglasses- is one that I need to try on whenever I'm at the store.

Above are my biggest flower and bow headbands. I wore the black and white flower headband to one of my very first fashion events. I get them from pretty much everywhere- drugstores, the mall, boutiques, and fairs. I just got the navy and black bow headbands (in the middle) at the State Fair this weekend for so cheap. I think the rest are a mix of drugstore and boutique finds. And of course they're pink, navy, and black, like most of my closet haha.

Another headband I have, not included above, is a pink metal crown that ties in the back with ribbon from the renaissance fair. It's so great since you can wear it both as a crown and headband and the ribbon is so cute if you tie it over your hair- maybe braiding it in would be a fun idea. It's not floral but crowns are on-trend right now and it would be really easy to just add your own flowers when you wanted.

When I want something more simple than giant flowers and bows I have a few thinner headbands like the two below.

Are you a headband junkie? Which stores do you think have the cutest?

Stay Fabulous,
xoxo Aimee

Disclaimer: When my sister saw this post she pointed out I have a lot of accessories besides my headbands, guess that's for another post.. ;)

Oh yes! I can wear a headband out! HAHAHA I have really short hair right now, but when it was longer I wore braided ones like the ones you have above. Then I have plain ones. I try to keep it simple, because I'm so tall. So I don't want a lot on the top of my head. HAHAHAHA Great post!http://www.averysweetblog.com/

Omg I am the same way! I always buy shoes or new clothes over accessories. Except I bought a TON of headbands when Gossip Girl started. I wanted/still want to be Blair or at least have her wardrobe. I even have some of the same headbands as you.
